Grilled Ice Cream? We Must Be Crazy!

When it comes to dessert, we are outside of the box. With a sweet tooth as liberal as ours, we are willing to try just about anything to satisfy our cravings for something sugary. If there is a dessert out there, we’ll eat it. Great way to wash down a couple of pounds of Q!

We found an easy way to make one of the craziest desserts we’ve ever heard of: Grilled Ice Cream! So simple even we could figure it out.

2 1/2 cups of flour

2/3 cup of butter

1/4 cup of water

1 Tbsp of sugar

1/2 tsp of salt

6 egg whites

2 cups of powdered sugar

Ice cream

This delicious treat starts by preparing the dough! Combine 2 1/2 cups of flour, 2/3 cup of butter, 1 Tbsp of sugar, 1/2 tsp of salt, and 1/4 cup of cold water in a mixing bowl and knead with your hands until you have an even dough.

Then be sure to wrap your dough in some plastic wrap and stick in in the fridge. You want to give it about an hour to set.

Roll it out and make mini circles using a small rocks glass.

Stick your mini dough circles into a muffin pan and make small fork holes to avoid air bubbles. Now stick the tray in the oven for 40 minutes at 400 degrees. While that’s baking, you can move on to the sweet stuff!

It’s time to whip up some meringue (not the dance)! Mix 6 egg whites and 2 cups of powdered sugar until you have a nice foam.

When the mini crusts are done in the oven, fill them to the brim with your meringue and add a scoop of your favorite flavor of ice cream on top.

Use more of your meringue foam to cover the ice cream scoop completely. Now it’s definitely time to fire up the grill.

Place your treats on the grill. Try to grill them evenly until all sides are slightly browned. It shouldn’t take more than four minutes, so be careful not to overcook and melt the ice cream!
